About this work

This painting looks like a simple black line drawing of a chair. The lines are made of tiny, even squares, giving it a grid-like pattern. It’s drawn in a loose, sketchy style, almost like a child’s drawing but with careful attention to shape. The chair has a backrest and two legs, but it’s not detailed—just the basic form. The whole thing sits on a plain white background, making the black lines stand out. If you like this kind of simple, geometric art, check out watercolor next.
